Advice on recording sounds of nature
« on: March 01, 2014, 06:42:01 AM »
Hi,
I´m starting to record pieces from the nature as a experiment (for example birds, dogs barking, waters, raindrops etc...) 

Wondering if anyone has done something similar and want to exchange some useful advices regarding setting up, positions of gear etc.

Ofcourse every situation is unique so I´m prepared to do alot of testing and adjusting to see what works best for each situation. Unlike the concerts and the "sweet-spots" there will be more testing and trying along the way.
Also I´ll do some post-production to slim things up if it´s needed I assume.

Any thoughts on this would be really great and interesting to hear from you, thanks.

My concert rig at the moment which I will try to use for this other experiment:
